Active Release Techniques
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a patented soft tissue system that treats muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries through hands-on manipulation. This method restores optimal tissue texture and motion while releasing entrapped nerves and blood vessels. Effective for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and tennis elbow, ART addresses overuse injuries by breaking down scar tissue and improving circulation. Our certified practitioners use precise movements to target specific areas of restriction, promoting faster healing and pain relief.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to restore nervous system function and alleviate pain. This technique addresses musculoskeletal issues by improving joint mobility and reducing nerve interference. We employ diversified and activator methods to suit individual patient needs, from athletes to those requiring gentle care. Adjustments help with conditions ranging from back pain to headaches by enhancing communication between the brain and body. Combined with soft tissue therapy, this approach delivers comprehensive pain management and improved physical function.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy uses high-powered light to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive treatment stimulates cellular regeneration and enhances lymphatic flow for faster recovery. Effective for acute injuries and chronic pain conditions, it promotes healing without heat or discomfort. The therapy targets areas like joints and muscles, improving circulation and reducing swelling. Patients experience pain relief and accelerated healing times, making it ideal for sports injuries and post-surgical recovery.
Graston Technique
Graston Technique employs stainless steel instruments to detect and treat soft tissue adhesions and scar tissue. This instrument-assisted therapy improves range of motion and reduces pain by breaking down fibrous restrictions. Certified practitioners use specialized tools to target affected areas precisely, stimulating healing responses in chronic or acute injuries. Effective for conditions like shin splints and rotator cuff injuries, it enhances recovery when combined with rehabilitative exercises. The technique accelerates healing by promoting collagen remodeling and improved tissue function.
Kinesio Taping
Kinesio Taping applies elastic therapeutic tape to support muscles and joints while maintaining full range of motion. This method reduces swelling and pain by improving lymphatic drainage and circulation. The tape provides proprioceptive feedback to enhance muscle function and joint stability. Used for both acute injuries and chronic conditions, it supports recovery without restricting movement. Patients benefit from extended pain relief and improved biomechanical function between treatment sessions.

The staff is wonderful with explaining the entire process. The Doctors find the right treatments & were able to start helping me immediately. From Doctors to staff to ease of scheduling one of the best teams & experiences ever. I strongly recommend Jonas Chiropractic for any type of injury. They are amazing

Before coming here I had been dealing with a shoulder injury for about a year and a half. I was told I needed surgery to fix it. After one session with Dr. Jonathan DeGorter, my shoulder had already felt better than it had since the injury. After a few more visits my shoulder feels good as new. Highly recommend. Thanks!

When Dr. Jonathan DeGorter at Jonas Chiropractic in Syosset initially examined me, he listened intently to my description of my spine-related pain. Whereas other chiropractors could not diagnose the cause of the pain and could not provide the correct treatment, Dr. DeGorter used the correct techniques. After only two visits, more than 50% of my pain was gone. After a few more follow-up visits, my pain was eradicated. I would absolutely recommend ace chiropractor Dr. DeGorter!

Dr. DeGorter is absolutely amazing! I just started going to his office a few weeks ago and I already feel a difference and great improvement. I have been having knee pain and back pain causing me difficulty to work out the way I would like to. After about 3 weeks, I already notice improvement and have been able to do more in the gym and the pain has improved. He is extremely thorough and has a great bedside manner. Highly highly highly recommend going to see him!

Dr. Jon is the best at Jonas Chiropractic. Not only is he professional and courteous, but he knows his stuff! I've been to many chiropractors over the years and nobody can get me going like he can. After the recent snow we have been having I threw my back out multiple times and he got me walking again. Thank you Dr. Jon!

I first visited Dr. Jon over a year ago due to throwing my back out. After "manning up" and trying to walk it off for a week, I made an appointment and never wished I done anything sooner in my life. It was instant relief. I've been back a few times at the first hint that something may be amiss and he always adjusts me back into shape. Great doc!

When I first came to see Dr. Jon I had a lot going on! Over time he fixed me up and continues to fix me up. There were a few times when I got hurt running and was able to get an emergency appointment. Every time I went crying to Jonas Chiropractic I was put at ease by the whole staff. I was assured everything would be alright and it always is. Dr. Jon remembers my upcoming races and plans my appointments based on them.
He remembers all of our planned races! It's really nice to go to a doctor that cares about and encourages each and every one their patients. Thank you for always treating me with courtesy and respect. I appreciate how caring the entire staff is. I highly recommend this practice!

I am a Chiropractor in Georgia and sent my dad who lives in NY to see Dr. DeGorter after an injury at work. Dr. DeGorter's skill and expertise in active release technique, graston therapy, cold laser and Chiropractic makes him a well rounded practitioner with all the tools needed to help patients with a wide variety of health issues. My dad did very well under his care and is now back at work feeling well.

Went to Jonas Chiropractic for Active Release Therapy (ART) on my tennis elbow and has brought the pain down to a manageable level. Have now introduced exercise along with ART and hope to put this issue behind me (BTW, three cortisone shots did nothing for me and ART has done wonders). Highly recommended and office is very professional.

Miracle worker, accommodating and friendly. I pulled my back and was in grueling pain. Dr. DeGorters welcoming staff fit me in for an 8:45 a.m. appointment. One adjustment later, by 6 p.m. I was on a 10-mile bike ride. Took another ride this morning, just to convince myself its true. I cant get over how the pain is relieved and mobility returned so quickly a very skilled Dr.
